If you have a square face, consider yourself lucky. Some of the most famous faces in the past and today have a strong, angular jawline. How do you know you have a square face? If you were to measure your head from top to bottom and side to side, it would measure about the same.

Here, we show you some best and worst haircuts for square faces, starting with one of my favorite square faces, Demi Moore. Moore has a classic square face. Here, her long hair tames the squareness of her jaw. Note how she wears her hair like curtains along the side of her face, rather than away from the face. Unlike women with long faces (sadly, me) who can't get away with long hair, women with square faces can.
